The whole town is a chocolate-themed amusement park. The sweet smell of chocolate is on every street comer. There are even road signs that say things like, "Chocolate Ave (大道)" and "Cake St."As we were walking towards the park, Jason, our tour guide, began telling us about this quiet little town. "Hershey Chocolate has been a brand in the world over the past hundred years. It is the biggest company that makes and sells chocolate in America," he started. "I guess you can get the chocolate in China, can't you?"I nodded (点头) without thinking. How could I possibly not know those lovely little candies when I've been eating them all these years?Jason went on, "The factory first started on a small farm. It developed very fast.
